Horrible challenge and deserved red card.

3-0 and down to ten men at half time. And I don’t think the Germans are a very good team.

They don’t have to be good to beat the party in blue. Dress rehearsal for the General Election.

Just grasping for positives…

…the Scots will finally get out of that half in the second 45 minutes.

Philipp Lahm just been interviewed. He is the tournament director. For a man who comes from Bavaria and spent his entire career at Bayern, his spoken English is really incredible. Bravo Phil.

Lahm is a very intelligent guy imo, anti FIFA and the continual commercialisation of the game

A likeable German - there's a thing!
 
Think that's what you call putting your laces through it...... some finish....
 
Think you might be in a minority of one on that last part......

He played the ball...

The double-jeopardy law states: "Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offender is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other circumstances (e.g. holding, pulling, pushing, no possibility to play the ball etc.) the offending player must be sent off."

If you say so Strolls......

So a 2 footed out of control challenge is ok in that situation is it?
